Scientific paper

Spectroscopic observations using an unintensified reticon detector are presented of comet Bradfield 1979l, covering the spectral region from 6100 to 11,000 A. The red CN 2-0, 3-1, and 1-0 bands are easily identified in the nuclear region and their intensity ratios are used to determine that the vibrational transition probability for the ground electronic state lies between 0.32 and 1/sec. The CN 2-0 and 1-0 bands are also present in the coma. The interest in simultaneous measurements of the near-infrared and space UV of future comets is pointed out.
